X=1/3
Distribute 8 through the parentheses
8-40x+5=-2+5x
Add the numbers
13-40x+5=-2+5x
Answer: x=1/3
8 x .75 x 1.50 = 9 that is your answer
We are told that f(x) = x + 2. We want to find
.
Squaring f(x) on one side means we square x + 2 on the other.
So,
f(x) = x + 2
(f(x))² = (x + 2)²
= (x + 2)(x + 2)
We can use FOIL to square x + 2. The first terms multiply to x², the outside terms to 2x, the inside terms to 2x and the last terms to 4.
= x² + 2x + 2x + 4
= x² + 4x + 4
So [f(x)]² = x² + 4x + 4
